(October 24, 1944 - May 25, 2022)

Our cherished and beloved husband, Dad and Poppa passed away at the Perth Memorial Hospital on Wednesday, May 25,2022.

He is survived by his loving wife of 50 years, Rosemary (nee Fox) and his three children Aaron (or as Joe called him “Bubba”), Chrissy (Bruce) and Carrie (Dan). His four grandchildren will miss him so very much Emily Rose, Brayden, Charlie and Emily. Joe is also survived by his sister Gloria McEwen (Ken) and several nieces and nephews who will miss his wisecracks and sense of humour. Joe’s family was his world and they were always his main priority. Second only to his family was his love of nature and baseball. He loved to fish, hunt and to sit and watch wildlife. He was an avid baseball fan who played and coached for many years, never missing a blue jays game. Following cremation, the family will receive friends at the Goodfellow’s Funeral Home, Parham on Saturday, June 4, 2022 from 11am-1pm. A Celebration of Life Service will follow at 1pm. Burial of the urn will take place at the Parham Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate memorial donations to the Central Frontenac Minor Ball association. These donations will be to help subsidize families who need assistance for their children to play ball.
